“Boy, how’s it going? Who’s lying in there? Is he alive or dead?” Buttface asked curiously as he stood at the mouth of the cave on tiptoes, trying to peer inside.

But he didn’t forget to stand quite far back. It was obvious that once he felt a hint of danger, he would immediately turn around and run away.

Duan Jiude was hiding behind Buttface, also looking very serious. He was likewise ready to escape at any time.

This kind of situation had become a common occurrence for Xu Que. He was too lazy to even say anything. Anyway, the two of them had set up the Trap & Kill Array at the entrance, which was the important thing. If there was really some danger going to take place here soon, then the Trap & Kill Array would be enough to create time for him to run away. So, at this point, he was not overly worried.

Of course, he really didn’t want to wake up all these the powerful beings that were in either the Celestial King or the Celestial Prime cultivation stage. If they all woke up at the same time, there would be big trouble.

“System, I opened this coffin. Why hasn’t this person woken up?”

The woman lying in the coffin hadn’t moved at all. Xu Que was dying to know how the System would explain it.

The System also seemed to be surprised about this. It stayed silent for a long time before it gave a response.

DING! “The host should use his own methods to try to rouse this person.”

“I should try on my own to rouse this person? F*ck, are you saying that any method will do?” Xu Que was getting pretty angry.

“As long as you can wake up the target, you can still get a reward,” the System responded.

“Oh, yeah. Why do I still feel like there’s a conspiracy against me going on?”

Xu Que frowned. He wasn’t in a big rush to start waking up this person.

“System, in fact, I’m still wondering. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll escape right away after I wake her up? In that way, I get the reward, but you don’t get to achieve your goal of refining my cultivation. So, what’s the point?” Xu Que voiced the doubts in his mind.

He’d been planning such a simple escape, but he didn’t believe that the System wouldn’t anticipate it.

DING! “After many calculations, I believe that as soon as the host wakes up the powerful being, the altar will start to move and seal the space. The host will have nowhere to escape to and be forced to stay and experience a life-or-death battle. After the battle ends, the host will be able to completely merge all his new Celestial Arts, and your strength will be completely consolidated.” The System responded calmly.

“Well, this is just as I expected.” Xu Que smiled calmly. In fact, he had long guessed that this was going to happen.

He hadn’t guessed specifically what was going to occur, but he’d always been sure that the devious System would never do anything with such an obvious bug.

But now the System had patched the bug. Once the powerful being woke up, the restrictive barrier of the altar would start and seal the space. At that time, he wouldn’t be able to escape.

Therefore, Xu Que was faced with a really big dilemma.

If he were to wake up the powerful being in the coffin, he would have to go through a life-or-death battle. Xu Que was fairly confident that he wouldn’t die.

On the other hand, if he didn’t wake up the powerful being, then there wouldn’t be any danger. But then this whole trip would’ve been in vain.

“Alas, it’s really hard to choose. I don’t want to take this risk without some good reason. It’s really too humiliating to be led around by the nose by this System.” Xu Que shook his head. He felt somewhat worried.

What he’d wanted was to wake up this person in order to obtain the rewards and then escape right away. He felt it was really too troublesome to fight.

But now it seemed as if there was no way to get what he wanted without fighting.

DING! “Reminding the host again that once you wake up the other party, the altar will seal off the space immediately.” At this point, the System beep sounded again.

Xu Que was feeling slightly annoyed by the System so he answered, “So?”

The System beeped again.

DING! “So…don’t try anything stupid.”

“Holy sh*t!”

Xu Que got furious.

“What does it mean by don’t try anything stupid?

“It makes me so mad!

“How has the system gotten so arrogant?”

“Okay, I’m not going to try anything stupid today. So what if she is a powerful Celestial Prime. Once I throw out my hidden trump card, they’ll have to die.” Xu Que laughed coldly. He gestured with a big wave of his hand and instantly marshaled his Celestial Core Power to hit the woman in the coffin.

BOOM!

However, just as the Celestial Core Power got near the woman, it was suddenly deflected by an invisible light shade. The Celestial Core Power hit the bronze coffin, which immediately started to make a loud vibrating sound.Read more chapter on NovelFull

“What’s happening?” Xu Que was startled.

However, the next moment, the woman in the bronze coffin suddenly opened her eyes. The first thing she did was to stare straight at Xu Que.

She was awake!

BOOM!

At this time, the spacious altar underneath Xu Que’s feet started to shake and radiate a dazzling glowing light.

All the restrictive runes had been activated to form light beams, which rapidly interwove in the air, turning into a halo that completely enclosed the entire cave.

The whole process took less time than the blink of an eye. The cave that Xu Que was in had become a sealed space, and he was trapped.

“F*ck, she woke up just like that?”

Xu Que was taken aback. He had initially thought that he had to impart the Celestial Core Power to rouse the other party. He did not expect his Celestial Core Power to be deflected and to shake the bronze coffin, which in turn woke the sleeping Celestial Prime up.

Xu Que had been completely unprepared for all this to happen so fast. Before he’d even had time to take stock of his situation the entire altar had already finished activating, and then it directly sealed the space.

DING! “Congratulations to the host for completing the wake-up mission and getting the Strike to Kill Nature Mode.”

DING! “Congratulations to the host for completing the wake-up mission and getting one free Debt Collector Beats Debtors service.”

The System beeped twice, one time right after another.

Only this time it sounded to Xu Que as if the System beep’s tone had a kind of smugness. It was obviously rejoicing in his misfortune.

“F*ck, boy, what’s going on?”

“Why have we been locked up? The exit is gone!”

The shouts of Buttface and Duan Jiude could be heard from outside the altar. Apparently, they had also discovered that the space where they were had been sealed.

“Don’t be babies! Get ready for a life-or-death battle!”

Xu Que answered them without turning his head. He didn’t want to take his eyes off the woman in the bronze coffin.

They had locked eyes, and neither one of them had moved an inch.

But gradually, Xu Que realized that something was wrong with the Celestial Prime. “Why didn’t the woman blink her eyes?”

Not only did she not blink her eyes, but she had been staring at him all this time and her expression hadn’t changed at all. “Could this rigidity have been caused by bad plastic surgery?”

“Young lady, I’m Xu Que from the Exploding Heavens Faction and still single. How about you?”

The wheels had turned in Xu Que’s mind, and he’d decided to change his strategy. He’d started to ask the woman about herself with a smile.

However, the woman’s expression still didn’t change in the slightest bit. She just continued to stare at Xu Que.

Xu Que couldn’t help but frown. He was somewhat puzzled. “What was going on here?”

“System, what kind of situation is this? Didn’t you say I should anticipate a life-or-death battle?”

Xu Que had to summon the System to ask it a question, because the situation had gotten so odd.

“…..”

The System stayed silent this time. Then, after a long while, it indifferently responded.

DING! “The goal was only to awaken the other party, but she hasn’t yet been restored to her operating power!”

PFFT!

Xu Que was stumped for less than a second when he heard those words, and then he burst out laughing on the spot.

“Ha, ha, ha! She’s just been awakened, but her operating power hasn’t been restored? System, are you trying to kill me with laughter? Is this what you call a life-or-death battle experience?”

Xu Que spoke smugly and patted his clothes with a face full of pride. He said with a roguish smile, “Well, System, since I’ve already gotten the reward, I’m going to leave. So long!”
